Mr.. BLAINE is following the sun in

boom. He paused long enough on

friend Powell Clayton, at Eureka,

in the direction of the White House.

the people Of the Flour City and never
played the role of false friend, but was
always the apostle of good feeling be-
tween the twins. It's one idea was to
give all the news of Minneapolis and
give it in readable shape, and to
stand as u friend when the masses of
MinneapOlitanS were worst in need of q
newspaper article of that kind Against
prejudice and old and deeply rooted bit
terneSs, the GLOBE has forced its way
into the respect and confidence of the
people of Minneapolis. and it's standing
in that city is on an assured and firm
foundation. No better evidence of this
need he given than the fact that the de-
mand for and upon it, by readers and
advertisers respectively, has increased
steadily and satisfactorily. Three years
ago one man, a resident reporter" was
sufficient to collate and transmit the
Minneapolis news; to-day the news de-
partment is in charge of thoroughly
organized staff of six men. Three
years ago one man, with three carriers.

bundle with which a dilapidated horse

rierS find abundant employment in
circulating the loads of papers hauled
down by two swift double teams, one
coming by way of University ave
nue. and the other crossing by the lower
bridge and distributing bundles en-
route. The SUNDAY GLOBE finds an
especially lucrative field in the Flour
City, and its sale by over two hundred
newsboys frequently exceeds that of all
other papers combined. At the depots
and at many of the leading hotels and
news stands the sales OF GLOBES are
daily larger than those of any other pa
pers, not excepting the Minneapolis
dailieS, and the sales of special editions,
by newSboys and across counters, have.
in instances, doubled the special sales
of other papers. By all in Minneapolis
who want the most and the best edited
news of their own city and of the world
in general, the GLOBE is most sought
for and most appreciated.

pie of Minneapolis by consistently main
tanning toward them an attitude of

assisted by the force Of circumstances
A peculiar field for general newspaper
lay unoccupied. Minneapolis had but

duct; stronger than all in those days
when local pride was rampant the peo-
pie felt even none of that in their then

ripe, and the GLOBE took the affairs of

and rocked by local dissensions and en-
Uttered by sectional jealousy; and es-
peciallyit found the restless and ener-
getic population of the Twin Cities
fighting under the war cry OF 'What
Injuries One Benefits the Other" The
fallacy of such II sentiment it became
the immediate mission Of the GLOBE to
set forth, and its first numbers carried
the evangel of unity and good feeling
Its success in this direction is one of the
brightest jewels in its crown. The sun
of II common destiny and equal welfare
of unity of purpose and ambition, of
oneness of interest and protection, soon
diSsipated the raw mists Of resentment
that hid from each city what was good
in the other, and made possible in fact
what existed only in namc-the Twin
Cities of the Northwest, That benefit
to one city was shared by the other, and
that an injury to one was a blow to the
other, has been accepted by both, and
an era of good feeling has dawned upon
the cities. What was keen, relentless
jealousy. that felt no scruple in q mer-
cileSS warfare, has been metamOrphosed
into 3 generous rivalry-an alert emula-
ton, in which special triumphs are ccle-
DRAFTED III one without "a corresponding
sting insthe other. In this good work
the GLOBE has had no rival, and in its
satisfaction at the results it admits no
shares beyond the liberal-minded citi-
Zens of both cities, to whose high sense
of candoT and justice and to whose inn
telligenee and judgment il has never
appealed in vain. In its crusade against
THIS HOSTILE JEALOUSY
it received, instead of aid, the sneers
OF the newspapers, whose only claim to
support was found in their pandering
to local prejudice and their daily play
upon the now lost chord of urban an
tagonism. The happy task Of weaving
the bonds OF unity was accomplished by
the GLOBE alone, with the assistance of

Perhaps no city i'll the great West has
SO cleverly shown what enterprise, en-
ergy, pluck and wealth can do as St.
Paul. In very few years it has grown
from the triiiing population OF 10000 to
a great city of 100000 souls. It's depots,
hotels and business buildings are as fine
as can be found anywhere in this broad
land, and its elegant homes surpass
those which grace Euclid avenue III

structures is the new DAILY GLOBE
block. BY enterprise, ability and bust
ness sagacity the GLOBE has been made
one of the greatest papers i'll the West,

cially. To keep pace with the growing
elegance of other business places in the

beauty it is doubtful if there is in the
United States newspaper Office that
equals it. Its interior appointments are
elegant, particular attention having
been paid to the necessities and comfort
of its large staff. and other employees.
All the rooms are large, rOomy and well
ventilated. 1t stands now a lasting
monument to the enterprise of the man
who conceived the idea Of its construc-

reality. Other buildings in the city also
indicate the generous wealth of the in

is not encouraged much, and does not
flourish as in the East. Reporting in
these latter days has been reduced to a
perfect system, backed by hard work,
ambition and intelligence. Care is also
taken to have none but gentlemen at
tached to the paper in any capacity.
The days of the inebriate and the blow
hard are at an end, and men who are not
cracked up as prodigies, but VINO have
good common sense and can write En-
glish, are preferred. The acquaintance
of these gentlemen-which gradually
extends as they become permanent
fixtures of the fOrce-makes it improba-
bic that any unusual incident of city life
should escape them-and, in fact, very
few do. The local staff of the GLOBE is
made up as follows: Luther Il. Little,
city editor; Tom Holmes. assistant city
editor and special; S. B. WO0lworth,
George c. Nerth, A. S. Genung, G.. f,
